User Reviews

Excellent movie for the whole family

My 3 and 5 year saw this movie and we all loved it. I am very excited that it is being released in 3D next month, We will definitely go see it in 3D. Great movie! I am very impressed that the movie is now associated with Sea World and will be jointly released with Hanover House. This movie really promotes environmental awareness and does a great job discussing how important it is to protect our oceans. With the big oil spill in the gulf of Mexico, a movie like this will remind all folks Who watch it just how important our oceans are to our planet and humankind. Turtles the incredible adventure is going to have a big impact Internationally now that BlackStone/Sea World Parks is partnered with target development/Hannover House.
